2 out of 5 stars Worked OK for a day, then died.   September 3, 2010
nola2172
After waiting a bit to receive the TV (super saver shipping), I scheduled a delivery and it arrived on a Monday. On Monday I hooked up everything and the TV was able to detect the proper ATSC channels (I have a large antenna) for me to receive over the air HDTV. Sound (through my surround sound) was good and everything looked OK. On Tuesday, I plugged my computer into the VGA port, and after a short interval, the backlight went out. I called Vizio support and after I got through to a representative, we walked through a few steps to determine that the backlight was dead and the TV would need to be replaced. He gave me a case number, instructed me to send them an e-mail, and indicated that they would respond in 24-48 hours with instructions on how I could replace the TV. By Friday (60 hours later), I had heard nothing, so I called Amazon to arrange to return the TV and get a different one.

Overall, the Vizio support was fairly prompt, but they did not execute on what I would consider the "useful" part of support. The TV itself was pretty good (decent picture, easy setup), but if the support is that awful, I would not want to see what would happen if there was a problem after the 30-day Amazon return window.

The Amazon support, on the other hand, was quick, to the point, and I have already put another TV on order that will be swapped with my defective one when the new one arrives (all arranged in just a few minutes on the phone with Amazon).



5 out of 5 stars VT420M Solid price/performance   July 7, 2010

My old Sony Trinitron XBR finally died and I needed an affordable new TV. This Vizio fit the bill nicely. I picked it up from Walmart for $698.

The picture is crisp and clear, no blurring is apparent and black levels appear excellent in our living room. I haven't used the onboard sound so I'm uncertain how that is.

I've had the TV for only about two weeks, but everyone in my home is thrilled with it. It's connected to FIOS HD via a Yamaha receiver that supports HDMI. With the money that I saved, I bought a Panasonic Blu-ray with internet connectivity.

Very easy to setup, lightweight, reasonably well balanced on its stand.

This is my first LCD and first Visio. I must say it is all I expected in an LCD. This VT420M satisfies my thirst for viewing movies at home. It doesn't have a whole lot of bells and whistles, but the picture is awesome.

My Vizio 42" HDTV is just the right size for my living room. Picture quality is excellent for HD programs and very good on others. I purchased a Vizio soundbar and sub-woofer to provide a fuller sound, and I am very satisfied with the results. I had planned to purchase a Sony Bravia, but it has a lot more features that I didn't need and didn't want to pay for. I'm happy with my Vizio.


5 out of 5 stars Did everything I wanted it to do.   January 17, 2010

Was going to get a phillips tv but was sold out so I looked at the vizio. build quality looked solid and everything worked as it should. Havent had any issues thus far. Only thing that will ever show that the tv was cheaper then normal is the manual with its cheap photos but thats nothing to complain about.

Also to fix the change in volume from the speakers turn off the srs true volume. It tends to over correct the volume and thus creates the random volume levels.
